The Impossibility of a Leftist Trump

[LowDown]

A writer at the Daily Beast is thumping his chest over the idea that Democrats would never nominate anyone like Trump, and they ought to be proud of that fact, he thinks.

I hadn't missed that as I said it. Not delicate but with a pleasantly bitter twist.
